In the published article, there was an error in Figure 2 as published. In the Figure 2 displaying the means of different categories, the order of the x-axis labels, "Family Population Outflow Rate" and "Land Loss Rate," was mistakenly swapped. However, this error does not affect the research conclusions for the following reasons:The research conclusions are based on regression analysis: The main findings are derived from the regression model, which provides robust statistical insights. The chart showing the means serves only as a descriptive visualization and does not influence the inferential results.The error does not change the data values: The values shown in the chart remain accurate; only the label order was incorrect. The revised chart still supports the original narrative: After correcting the label order, the chart continues to satisfy the statement in the paper: “The results of this analysis are shown in Figure 2. It can be seen that there are some differences in the respondents’ emotions toward the Chinese alligator in the different groups.” Thus, the integrity of the analysis and its interpretation remains intact.The corrected [Figure 2] and its caption **[ Mean of emotions toward the Chinese alligator among different groups of respondents] appear below.
